start cleaning (6)
When the news of Madame Victoire’s death came, the Duke of Sarnez must have exclaimed inwardly.
“Aren’t you too cowardly, Duke? Aren’t you a staunch strongman?”
“·················ogue.”
It’s like getting a whole case without evidence.
He must have thought that he was able to adapt the case of ‘the case of wearing a bounty’ to his own taste.
An already deceased criminal must have believed that he would never be able to hinder him.
“The Baron Baron’s family has already lost their beloved twins one day at a time. But it’s not enough to frame those weak and petty people with unreasonable names, they even set up a plan to insult the dead. Both of them lived with nails in their chests for the sake of Count Andrésie even during their lifetime.”
“·················ogue.”
“Does a person who grew up with nothing short of lacking, who has been in power for the rest of his life, think of using the weak so recklessly?”
I handed the diary to Sir Elizabeth and shot him.
‘It can be, and it can be done.’ The reason for that was the wrong answer.
At least it was, in my belief.
In a world with leaders like Emperor Frederic or Cardinal Butier, he didn’t want to hear such an excuse.
Marquis François and Baron Verand, who were pushed to the edge of the cliff, were also beloved lords.
I clenched my fist. I wanted to be coherent, but I kept getting angry.
Barely not screaming was my limit.
“Didn’t you just come straight to me with a knife? Then it would have been fair.”
“·················ogue.”
The peacock looked at me and frowned, but in the end he couldn’t say anything and lowered his head.
Rather it was better It was not a sin that could be alleviated by saying sorry or sorry.
It’s not just me that’s wrong, and those who died through his tricks can’t come back alive anymore!
“You must have never thought that you would be attacked by the dead!”
So he was even more angry with Berner Penetian.
I wanted to say the same thing to him.
Don’t be mean, come and wield anything.
Stop hiding behind a veil to get blood on other people’s hands.
I don’t know what the story is, but I didn’t want to know the murderer’s dirty cause anymore. I didn’t even wonder.
“Shh, Prince.”
‘don’t worry. Leave the rest to the adults.’ The cardinal gently brushed my cheek and calmed me down.
When I looked at the eyes under the monocle with an expression of regret, I cried again.
There are obviously far more good people than bad people in the world, but it made me angry all over again that there are people who make mistakes and there are people who correct them.
It was also unfair for Master to express regret for not being able to prevent this from happening.
Apparently, I was a long way from becoming a mature adult.
Sir John, who was standing silently behind him, smiled as he saw me holding the fire ball again.
“In the course of the investigation, it was also confirmed that the duke’s influence was effective in delaying the establishment ceremony of the Hwangdao garrison embassy school until December. It is true that the event was originally scheduled for October and was highly liquid. However, intentionally set the date to December 19, the opening ceremony of Baron-ryong’s orphanage…”
Sir Elizabeth, who was silent for a moment, continued to speak again and again.
Since then, the crimes of the Duke and Eugenie Kessie have been endless.
In particular, the nobles groaned whenever the testimony of Gerard Sorio, the chief of the Sarnez family, was mentioned. ‘Oh my God, no onions!’
For example, the duke summoned Andreji to the lord and gave him poison, directly commanded the terrorist site through a code, corrected the contents of the malicious Jirash from beginning to end, and the squadron and war operations also handed over information to the new country. The fact that there was an enemy, etc.
It was also revealed that Jeanette, a servant of the Imperial Palace, had been brainwashed by Kessie several years ago.
Some priests covered their faces with their hands.
But the most shocking moment was when Kathy shared an old truth.
“The opinion that we should use Baron Baron is……. I paid Yes, fold.”
The old man had a voice of desperation.
At first, he begged for his life because he was going to testify, and then he committed suicide, which is rare, and now he seems to have put everything down.
Even the torn forehead seemed to stop bleeding. His gray hair was red and wet.
Suddenly, a gritty voice like sand came out.
“The one who stole the statues of the dead twins… It was my go-to. I spent a lot of money on it.”
“·················ogue.”
What does this mean? Even Count So, who was in charge of the trial, looked surprised.
She spoke calmly.
“The Archbishop. At that time, the Imperial Guards searched the surrounding area for about a month. The culprit who stole the information to the new country was the baron’s coachman. Those who died on the same spot as the twin brothers.”
I opened my eyes wide. This was the first story I ever heard.
So, in March of last year, it was when I had my first assassination attempt.
There were twins, a priest-level paladin and a priest, who smuggled into Penetian to kill me.
The two criminals murdered the Verang twins who tried to enter the palace as Juliet’s servants, then entered the place and pretended to be real.
The guards speculated that an insider of the baron’s family had handed over information about the twins to the New Kingdom.
So that the enemy country can select assassins who meet the conditions.
I expected that if the culprit was caught one day, the captain of the neighborhood guard would tell me the full story of the case.
But she was quiet.
“The guards ripped the floor of the dead coachman’s bedroom and found gold bars there. They were all made in the new country. It was confirmed by the Imperial Appraiser.”
Now that I see it, the reason is obvious.
The driver who sold the twins was also silenced forever.
Sir Elizabeth, Canael’s fiancée, who had heard of my situation, was unable to announce another tragedy.
Because I was suffering from nightmares from time to time around that time.
“Hey, he was a smoke screen. It was a bait to cover up the case.”
“I beg your pardon?”
For the first time, a large crack appeared on the face of Count So, who had maintained his coolness.
The captain of the Erbe Guard also frowned at the referee.
Casey smiled and shrugged.
“How naive a handsome noble noble Nari is…. What do people who have grown up to be beautiful know? You must have had a fight in a local temple the size of the palm of your hand, or you must have been in debt at the salon to buy a luxury carriage.”
“archbishop.”
It was the priest who had spoken to the emperor a while ago who politely called her.
As the old man stared quietly, the woman frowned.
“…it wasn’t the dead coachman who handed over the twins’ statues to me, but a priest in the baronies. The temple was in a very remote place, so there was no doubt about it. I got along moderately with the baron, but I wasn’t very friendly either.”
“Oh My God. How could that…!”
Baroness Anne Verand rushed to run out. Her husband barely hugged her.
The woman shed bloody tears.
“How can you say murder so easily? Blaming the dead! How long have we been? Do you even know how we lived?”
“I did it to live.”
“Then my son! For what crime did my children have to go there when they were thirteen!”
‘why! why······!’ She screamed and beat her chest. I jumped down to the reference table again and again.
My heart was so heavy, it seemed that if I fell into the water like this, I would never be able to float.
The wife leaned in her husband’s arms and held my hand and sobbed.
She, who had always shown gentle strength, was finally falling down helplessly.
The baron wept with breath, and Antoinette hugged the crying Elodie tightly.
I was startled when I looked at Sir Elisabeth blankly.
She was just before she drew her sword. The intimidation of the 8th grade prosecutor was pressing on Cassie.
Sharp gray eyes exuded a sullen fur.
“Heh, heck, heck…! What is this, what are you doing! Whoops!”
“So what did the priest do?”
“Now, in front of His Majesty! Cuckoo!”
The old woman grabbed her neck and threw herself on the floor.
The pressure was so strong that blood started to flow from the wounded head again.
Even though the criminal was in pain and screaming, Count So did not budge.
The peacock kneeling beside him was barely breathing.
I hurriedly looked around the imperial family. Until Sir John, the four had the same expressionless expression.
“The priest who gave you information. How did you do it?”
“Killed! Killed it, heh!”
‘Clok chock! Cool cool cool look!’ The old man then let out a dry cough and took a deep breath.
The commander of the nearby guards immediately overcame the pressure.
She swept up her dark green bob and pushed Kessie away.
“when. how.”
“After the investigation is over! Ha, it was about a month ago. Where I am, cool! I was commissioned as an archdiocese. It was simple because I had a connection with the Holy See!”
The confession that followed was shocking.
She summoned the priest to her parish to clear up the troubles of later days.
Then he slid the wagon off the sheer cliff.
I loosened the screws of the wagon wheel a little in advance, and the smooth road was blocked with road construction as an excuse.
He said ‘just in time’ it was raining. “I was lucky,” said Casey.
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
The terrifying statement was over, but no one was the first to speak. I had nothing to say.
I felt a little tired. Still, I did not let go of her hand.
“Looks like this is it.”
All eyes of the audience went to the highest place.
Zion’s red eyes were burning in the hall.
“Then let’s start cleaning.”
*
There was nothing harsh about the emperor.
“From this time on, I will remove all titles and decorations from the criminal Simon de Sarnaise, reclaim the territory, and confiscate all of his property to the national treasury. Businesses operating under the author’s name will also be subject to Imperial management. In addition, the Duke of Sarnez excludes everything from the history of affairs recorded by the imperial officers after the war era. Isabelle de Sarnez and Christel de Sarnez, found innocent, are exempt from punishment, while retaining the title and pension of the latter.”
“I am honored.”
Everyone bowed their heads in front of her. Frederick said in a grunt, controlling his anger.
“The same is true of Archbishop Eugenie Kessie. On the other hand, the author’s son and wife and granddaughter did not actively participate in the plot, but they concealed the kinship and evil deeds of their relatives and benefited steadily from it. Therefore, all three are sentenced to life imprisonment.”
“no. no! no it will My child is nothing but ugly!”
The old woman shouted.
As she dared to kneel before the emperor, the guards who had been hiding everywhere like shadows appeared and subdued her.
Hwang Myung did not stop while the woman used evil with a cracking voice.
“aaah! no no! How unfair, Your Majesty!”
“Murder, attempted murder, murder teacher, attempted murder teacher, terrorist attack on the imperial family, attempted assassination of the imperial family.”
Blood splattered all over the floor. The audience quickly retreated.
“I worked hard! Since the end of the decade, he has been working diligently for the Empire. Peacock! You can say something too!”
“·················ogue.”
“The crime of causing a de facto civil rebellion and national chaos by communicating with the royal family of an enemy country. The crime of betraying the mother of the great Lister Empire. It was a crime of daringly misusing the emperor’s authority and making false claims.”
“your majesty! You said you saved me. The princess told me that!”
He could feel the soul of his companion holding him firmly.
Frederic Lister closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them.
And sentenced without hesitation.
“Jim is charged with the above-mentioned offenses and puts Simon de Sarnaise and Eugène Caesier to death.”
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
Simon and Isabelle both closed their eyes at the same time.
Despite the expected ending, it was not easy for everyone.
Some nobles and priests shed tears with their complicated feelings.
The process of washing away the old dust and past mistakes was so long. However, it was only the second.
Like his mother, Frederic had to persevere through this as well.
She was the ruler and conductor of the most powerful nation on the continent.
The same sin could be repeated at any time unless it was made clear that it was evil, wrong, and injustice was not clearly drawn.
So I had to do it now.
In the distant future, I hope that my son’s burden will be a little lighter.
“I escort criminals to the imperial prison.”
Elizabeth gave orders to her men. Casey was now weeping.
“your majesty! Give me one last chance! Give yourself time to defend yourself!”
The emperor’s eyes were silent.
Without Aurelie, she would have blown up half of the palace.
The blow that the Empire suffered today will be talked about for a very long time.
“Everyone go away. Some of the references will be seen again tomorrow. you stay.”
she chin Nobles and priests bowed deeply and left the audience in groups.
They, including the baron’s family, walked slowly, relying on each other.
Before long, Cedric and the other children carefully gathered in the center.
Frederic called the wind in a voice that was too small to reach the children.
“Taesa.”
“Please name it.”
As if to be heard, the mercenary behind him immediately responded.
“I must give a final warning to the new country.”
“Who are you going to send it to?”
John asked as if he had been waiting. It was a light and cool tone.
It was a fight that there was no problem at all, even if the Vatican was blocked.
“The Crown Prince of the Empire in the Royal Capital.”
And he stopped talking for a moment.
Frederick made a long sentence with Aurelie.
“Duke Wilhelmina Sneijder.”
